We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The king bedroom we stayed in was spacious and had full kitchen utensils, pots, pans, microwave, fridge for making simple meals. Our room was # 215, an upstairs room which has a nice view of a garden area from the outside lanai area; and a bit of the ocean view. Across the ocean we could see Lanai island in the distance. The staff was also very friendly. Close to the small town area (5mins by car); 20 minutes from the airport. We would stay here again when coming to Moloka’i in the future.

The staff is so friendly. They go out of their way to make you comfortable. The hotel is older but it’s “old Hawaii” feel is just perfect. The gift shop is reopening soon and the restaurant will be under going a remodel. I want to return next year because I’m sure things will be even better.

Roosters start crowing a little early!

Our stay was great. The only thing out of the hotel's control is the roosters crowing at 3 AM. Little rough - until I started sleeping with earbuds.

I would love to review the property …. But unfortunately my flight there was on Mokulele Airlines (the only air carrier that flies there) and they grounded all their flights for days due to negligence of maintenance. Shame on them for wrecking our vacation and not offering us any compensation other than a refund. Shame shame shame on them.

Horrible Hotel Molokai!

Horrible Hotel Molokai! I was there in January and the Stench from the seaweed, sargassum, was unbearable! It upset your stomach! The managment either does NOT understand Customer Service, or does NOT care! The room had a "Creepy" feel to it. Something on the toilet near the handle...Gross! NO ALOHA SPIRIT at Hotel Molokai! :-(

Miscommunication on check in for late check out. Staff could not accommodate late check out for additional $25, but by hotel policy at $25 per hour. So, we checked out in time and hotel didn’t make any money from us. Saw only two other guest there. THATS WHY THERE WERE ONLY FOUR CARS IN PARKING LOT. PROBABLY FOR THE EMPLOYEES.

Sold an ocean view No view when I got the room. When I asked about the view at the office the girl said “oh, this was “third party” Expedia. They should have said “partial ocean view when on the outside deck”. Ripoff
This is the “ocean view” I paid for.
